Take mountain bike tires designed for downhill and with the largest
width available (2" and more) for a better grip on smooth surfaces. Using a mylar
strip in the tires to protect against flats might be appropriate. There are some new foam
materials currently under test by some manufacturers. They reportedly would lead to flat
free tires. Let's hope it will work...

Tow devices

- Photo -

This device links the ORWC to the
animal pulling it. It provides also a quick disconnect system in case of any
problem.
Made of a 6mm diameter rope, 1m long, with a carabineer on the chair side and the quick
disconnect on the animal end. The disconnection is activated by the pilot with a small
cable.

Legs protection bag

Protects the pilot body from the rain, the wind or the
dust. It is also very usefull when crossing some creeks or small rivers.

A plastic trash bag could also be used, but might generate a lot of
moisture in it.

Drinking bottle

A bottle clamped on the ORWC frame can obviously be used. But the
most convenient way of beeing re-hydrated (especially for long trips under a heavy sun) is
to hang on the back of your chair a water bottle with a small pipe linked to the pilot
(like CamelPack, Platypus etc..).
